Have a chance to buy a nice 2006 Miata with a Flyin' Miata supercharger on it. Have had na, turboed, Mazdaspeed, and a LS3 V8. Would I like it as good as a turbo? Please let me know. TIA.
Supercharger, properly set up with good fuel management, is going to mostly feel like just a larger engine. No sudden thrill like a turbo hitting the sweet spot and kicking the car into warp.
Some people prefer that turbo kick (and I really like it in my Ford f150), but in all honesty, a turbo is probably better. I also like the low-end torque of the supercharger as well.
A lot comes down to what you want to do with the car, and personal preferences.
